How Many Rounds?

This is a discussion on How Many Rounds? within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I carry a G30 so that is 10+1 and a G21 mag for an extra 13 for a total of 24. If I'm going hiking ...

I usually carry a Glock 19 with 15+1 in it and 1 spare 19 round mag (Glock 17 mag with a factory +2 extension and 11 coil spring) - 35 rounds

Sometimes carry the G19 with 2 spare 19 rounders if I'm going into a bigger city like KC or STL- 54 rounds

I also carry a Glock 26 sometimes when I need something a bit smaller, usually carry it with 10+1 in it and with a spare Glock 19 mag - 26 rounds I find it funny that my little hot weather small carry gun with 1 spare mag still has 1 more round than the 1911 I used to carry with 8+1 and 2 spare 8 rounders!

I could carry the 26 with any of the above mentioned spare mag loadouts though. I really like that I don't have to feel undergunned when I carry the baby Glock when compared to the LCP I used to use as my "little gun" with its .380 cartridge and dinky 6 round mags....

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along." . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do. Eleanor Roosevelt
